Exodus 4:22 in Context — Exodus 4

20 Moïse prit sa femme et ses fils, les fit monter sur des ânes, et retourna dans le pays d’Égypte. Il prit dans sa main la verge de Dieu.

21 L’Éternel dit à Moïse: En partant pour retourner en Égypte, vois tous les prodiges que je mets en ta main: tu les feras devant Pharaon. Et moi, j’endurcirai son cœur, et il ne laissera point aller le peuple.

22 Tu diras à Pharaon: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Israël est mon fils, mon premier-né.

23 Je te dis: Laisse aller mon fils, pour qu’il me serve; si tu refuses de le laisser aller, voici, je ferai périr ton fils, ton premier-né.

24 Pendant le voyage, en un lieu où Moïse passa la nuit, l’Éternel l’attaqua et voulut le faire mourir.
